Trials of OhSnipers

I don't know about you all but I'm sick of trials being broken down to who can camp and snipe. Especially this weeks map. It used to be fun, but now it's 98% sniping and that's just boring. I know people want to win but man-up and come at me! On a more serious suggestion, whoever gets revived does so and gets an overshield, yet you are still vulnerable to a one shot kill from that pansy sitting on the other side of the map watching you. How about after a revive, you can't get one-shotted? Making the over shield effective. They won't nerf snipers obviously because sooo many people would cry because they would lose their only way to win. But buff the overshield after a revive to resist a one shot makes perfect sense. I expected a backlash of nerds justifying their cowardess but over 400 replies!?!? What makes you all so mad? My rightness? Most of you sound like you were raised by the Internet! On a side note I keep being accused of being a "shotgun noob". I prefer fusion rifles to be honest. Check the stats. Also I got about 29,000 crucible kills. Only 3,000 of which are shotty. So...math. So, 700 comments and 14 of whatever those blue arrows mean later, the young are here still trying to prove their hidey-hole not moving strat is honorable and almost tough. A lot mention a "push"? Informing me that I have to find a workaround mechanic to counter their sedentary playstyle. Or to [i]rush[/i] their side like, "oh no, you gotta find me here holding hands with my teammates if you actually wanna play the game". It cracks me up and y'all have made me rather popular on this forum which I know for a lot of you is all you wanna be! Ha! To the 11% of the people who replied that share my opinion, thank you, you get it. Well three (?) days and 10 away from a thousand replies regarding this post, after all the name calling and intentions to assassinate my character and playstyle and after all you little weirdos snooping around my stats trying to use them as a leg to stand on, the Hidey Snipey community has only strengthened my dislike for them. It seems a person who doesn't spare words has no place in this easily offended digital realm. One person commented that my post is "a little forward". I agree, and it's on purpose. Since your egos have been coddled you just can't handle it and my assault on your playstyle is taken with such pain it's comedic. Then I'm accused of it being a "salty, whining, complainer" for even speaking up! Madness! Maybe they thought I would yield, or even worse, be reasonable. My TrashTalk-Fu is strong. I'm not sure what offends more, my anti-camping campaign or the fact that I always have a zinger. As if I base my self worth on my KD (like most of you), it's insulted. You have revealed your hurt by defaulting directly to attacking people who shotgun even if I don't mention it. This is not a debate on which is better, shotty, sniper, fusion, sidearm etc. It's a post against a playstyle that I dont like, one I find boring and cowardly. A flaw in the system that allows one to get one shotted with an OVERSHIELD!!! A SHIELD!!! Fine, take the shield away, it'd make more sense than having one that is one-shottable by ANY weapon. For those who are unafraid to engage in a chaotic fast paced fight on the virtual battlefield I salute you. To those who slow it down with hand holding and hard scoping, the hiding and then have the nerve to defend it with a righteous indignation...gfy. :) You all think I'm referring to a gun as the problem. No, the behavior is the problem. You act like cowards when sniping. The sniper is not the problem, the problem is the panty wearers that be holding them. Lol don't deny.

  • The game has been slow down way too much. And Bungie did it on propose and I get it. But some matches are sooo boring. I like to snipe and I like to rush, but every once in a while a competitive high pace game would be awesome. The guns need to be tweaked a bit more. More noticeable drop off for snipes. Buff hand canons! I think shot guns are at an ok place but giving everyone a Conspiracy Theory was dumb.

    • @the swza I'm a run and gun player. I getting tired of waiting. I don't like to play the who can camp the longest game. Unfortunately I usually play with and against a bunch of panzies. Meaning I am usually forced to make the first move on some with little or no back up, severally punishing my kd. I still have a positive kd but I'm sure you know how it is being th aggressor.

      • So what you are saying is, you want them to nerf snipers now. Come December you will ask them to nerf scout rifles. It has nothing to do with the weapon being overpowered, you just suck. Get used to it. The minute people complain about a sniper that doesn't one shot to the body being overpowered, that is the moment you have a problem.

          • OP has less than 100 crucible sniper kills. Why should your opinion on how easy sniping is or isn't even matter? Get 5,000 + sniper kills in crucible, then people with skill who know this game might take you seriously. You're just a dirty shotgun fiend. Talk about a crutch. Your main has more shotty kills than any primary.

            • You're right in that as soon as you spawn when you cant even move because you are still doing the drop down animation which is too predictable for a sniper.The overshield in general shouldn't be buffed,because you would have to buff overshields for supers too like sunbreakers with that sunspot perk.More people would complain.I personally just think after getting revived,your teammate gets an overshield and you get a say 2-second timer of immunity where you can't shoot and they can't shoot you.But for the way snipers play,they use it the way it should be,just like how a shotgun is best at close range ,snipers are best at long range with the best FOV so being sedentary is just something you'll have to accept.

              • All I have got to say is that getting one headshot with a sniper takes a lot more skill than getting one with a shotgun

              • The amount of people who don't know how to counter res-sniping is incredible. Also, shotguns can one shot an Overshield. Just saying.

                  • If you were getting sniped on last week's map, you obviously didn't learn your lesson the first 20 times you rushed to their side only for them to cover all corners. If they're camping with snipers, wait them out and take the objective. You gave in to their obvious strengths so no, you only have yourself to blame for lack of comms, teamwork and common sense.

                          I play with any weapon, got some kills with lord of wolves even, but some snipers like me can kill u by just quick scoping, not all snipers sit in the back. I even did a clutch 3 vs 1 and killed all 3 enemies with a sniper, they were all using shotguns lol.

                        • To be honest you sound like every other player in Destiny who makes excuses because they can't have their way. Just saying, none of us care about you crying just because you can't counter a good sniper.

                          But most people aren't that good at sniping lol. Most literally spray & pray for a headshot. Or leave your screen flashing red.

                        • Nobodies is getting the picture here. The problem isn't the snipers. The problem is the absurd abundance of special ammo. It is WAY too early for special ammo to be dropping every round at thirty seconds in. Its basically a 70% special weapons out there.
